@daboyal006 :

There has been different reviews if the LG G4 has quick charge capability. Is there anyway you can use a quick charge cable with the phone to confirm if this is true or not. Perhaps you can use the one if you have it on hand for your M8.

What about the display, does it have some kind of tint (yellowish, greenish,...)?
On some videos I saw the display seemed to have a yellowish display...

Is that any option to disable or enable tap to wake and camera OIS? any battery saving feature ? How is signal strength of radio quality ? is audio quality better than any recent phone ? Except M9
I dont see a way to disable tap to wake.

Does it have OIS:Yes
Option to disable OIS: Not that I see

Battery Saving Option: Yes (Check Pic Attached)

Signal Strength: I've been using it on Wifi for 2 days but I will start using my TMobile sim later today.

Audio: Surprisingly loud speaker but still facing the wrong way lol .. louder then the iPhone 6 in my personal opinion. It sounds great to me and I did have the M9,M8, and M7.

Voice Quality : Havent tested yet.

Oh really, lets see right now

I will test it out now, I have a quick charger from my S6.

20% at 11:05 ETD ..will edit post with results

Update:


11:54 ETD.. 75%

12:42...98% ..ehh

55% in 49 min...But the end of the charging time it gets slow.



Pretty fast in my opinion until the end of the charge. I didnt use the phone and screen was off.

These are really great results. Thanks for confirming it with us it's up there with Samsung Galaxy S6. Wow this is great news. Here is the comparison link below against the current flagship Phones and Tablets.

This could end up being carrier specific much like verizon did with the z3v Versus z3 & wireless charging on their version.

Thanks for raining in our parade mate. But I see quick charge was also on the Z3V. We are hopeful we get this enabled as well on the Verizon version. As below:

"- Wireless Charging (Qi-enabled)
- Fast battery charging: 60% in 30 min (Quick Charge 2.0)"

The Z3 did not have wireless charging.

The verizon Z3v did.

I was using that just to say for quick charging it could be there or not based on provider specs. Just like I've read the most often seen brown tan leather is T-Mobile carrier specific.

This review says NO quick charging.

"there's no wireless charging or quick charging here" - not sure who the carrier is. So I am reading a TON of contradictory info on both quick & wireless charging.
From what I understand wireless charging is only available with LG's quickcircle case. As far as quick charge yes and no, with the included power adapter it takes a little longer from 0 to 50% but faster from 50 to 100%. So in the end it's about a wash. LG calls it fast charge. The phone doesn't officially support Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 so they cannot call it quick charge, but it's equivalent.

"RAISES HAND"


Well my G4 does not have wireless charging out the box. But I see the prongs in the back for a case to get wireless charging.


As far as quick charge, read my older post where I do my own test with a S6 Fast charger and it's quick for the first half but slower in the second half.

They need a compatible charger to try in the 1st place. It's already proven that it has Quick Charge at least on the models that many reviewers have in their hand right now.

Root Lg G4

I have the grey plastic version. I was sent this yesterday as part of a Youtubers reviewer trial. I'm loving it so far. The model I recieved didnt come with the final software and a non retail packaging box. Just a charging brick and micro usb wire. Anyone have questions or any fellow youtubers or trial testers.

I dont see a dedicated setting for clearing ram on the phone (only storage) but i downloaded a app. And its says about 1.50Gb free of Ram out of 2.76 after clearing.
